Assembly summary

Maize sequences generated from methylation filtered and high Cot genomic DNA clones were first repeat-masked with a filtering module from the Paracel Transcript Assembler package (Paracel Inc.) using the Maize Repeat Database and the TIGR cereal repeat databases as references. The repeat-masked sequences were clustered by sequence similarity or clone links to produce 'clustered' and 'singleton' sequences. Following assembly of the clustered sequences [2], a consensus sequence was determined for each assembly, called an 'AZM' (Assembled Zea mays) sequence. Those 'clustered' sequences failing to form an AZM were added to the 'singletons'.
